21.5″ Industrial Touch PC X6413E (Large Case)

The 21.5″ Capacitive Touch PC X6413E (Large Case) is faytech's Atom-based industrial touch PC at the dominant 21.5″ Full HD desktop monitor size — engineered as the cost-effective alternative to the Core i5 sibling for deployments where platform demands are well within Atom Quad-Core capability and buyers prioritize value, modern Full HD widescreen real estate, high contrast, and IPS-class wide viewing angles over premium compute headroom. The 21.5″ Full HD form factor is the most widely-deployed desktop monitor size in modern enterprise computing — and remains the dominant size specification for self-service kiosks, retail customer-facing displays, and large-format interactive workstations. This product is positioned for large-format self-service kiosks (premium QSR, banking, healthcare check-in, transit), enterprise workstations, retail customer endpoints, modern web-based HMI supervisor stations, and equipment OEM integration.

Distinct From the 21.5″ Patented Industrial Atom Touch PC

faytech offers two distinct 21.5″ Atom-based touch PCs serving different deployment needs:

• This product — 21.5″ Atom Large Case (FT215BX6413ECAPOB): Standard Large Case chassis with 2× RS-232 COM ports, 9-36V DC input, IP65 rubber frame seal. Optimized for enterprise workstations, self-service kiosks, modern web-based HMI, and dedicated commercial deployment. Part of the unified Large Case family with shared physical infrastructure across all sizes.
• 21.5″ Patented IP65 Industrial Atom (FT215X6413ECAPOB): Separate "Patented IP65 Industrial" chassis line with switchable RS-232/422/485 + 5V/12V/RI power output, patented silicon seal sealing methodology. Optimized for specialized industrial equipment integration with non-standard serial protocol requirements.

Buyers should choose this Large Case product when standard RS-232 connectivity and unified chassis compatibility with other Large Case sizes are appropriate; choose the Patented IP65 Industrial variant when specialized serial protocols (RS-422/485) or specific industrial integration requirements drive the buying decision.

Same Large Case Form Factor — Different Compute Tier

This product implements faytech's standard Large Case architecture — identical Large IPC Back Kit design, modular Front Kit + Back Kit construction, connectivity layout, and mounting infrastructure as the rest of the Large Case Touch PC family. The difference is the internal compute platform: this product uses the Intel Atom x6413E (Elkhart Lake) Quad-Core processor, while the Core i5 Large Case siblings use the Intel Core i5-1145G7E (Tiger Lake U) vPro processor. The Atom and i5 Large Case products install identically into the same mounting infrastructure, offer identical connectivity, and share the same modular service infrastructure. The buying decision is purely about compute tier and cost.

When to choose this Atom version:

• Large-format self-service kiosks — premium QSR ordering, banking self-service, healthcare check-in, transit fare/ticket kiosks, parking payment, hotel check-in
• Enterprise workstations running modern web-based applications, dedicated-function business software, and customer-facing service interfaces
• Retail customer-facing endpoints — gift registry, product configurators, loyalty enrollment, in-store wayfinding, electronic shelf-edge displays
• Healthcare workflow stations for nursing documentation, patient engagement, telehealth endpoints
• Interactive digital signage with Full HD video content and touch-driven navigation
• Modern web-based HMI supervisor stations running browser-based control interfaces
• Fleet deployments at scale where per-unit cost savings multiply meaningfully across hundreds of installations
• Equipment OEM integration where unit cost drives the buy decision

When the Core i5 Large Case sibling is the better choice:

• Multi-application enterprise workstations running productivity suite + browser + business apps concurrently
• Computer-vision augmented inspection software or AI-assisted decision support
• vPro remote management requirements for IT fleet management across distributed facilities
• Higher storage requirements — Core i5 Large Case siblings ship with 240 GB SSD vs 120 GB on this Atom version
• Video conferencing and rich media at workstation positions

Workstation-Grade Visual Quality

This product features the workstation-grade display combination of 1000:1 contrast ratio + 178°/178° IPS-class wide viewing angles — matching the visual quality of the 17″ and 19″ siblings and offering significantly better visual performance than typical entry-tier touch monitors. The 178° viewing angles deliver consistent color and brightness across nearly any viewing position, which matters in real deployment contexts:

• Customer-facing self-service kiosks where users approach from oblique angles in queue environments
• Retail customer-facing displays where staff + customer collaboratively view product information, gift registry selections, or order configurations
• Healthcare patient engagement where provider + patient + family member all view the screen during clinical conversations
• Bank teller workstations where teller and customer both view account information or signature capture
• Training and demonstration stations where instructor + multiple trainees view the same workstation
• Conference room interactive displays where multiple meeting participants view from various seating positions

The 1000:1 contrast supports better visual separation in modern UI design, photographic content, video signage, and information-dense application interfaces. Brightness is 250 cd/m² (appropriate for typical indoor commercial deployment with controlled lighting), and LED backlight lifetime is 30,000 hours — supporting continuous 12-24 hour deployment. The display uses LVDS interface internally.

Full HD Resolution on a 21.5″ Widescreen Panel

The display is purpose-built for modern interface design: 21.5″ across the diagonal, 1920×1080 Full HD resolution, and 16:9 aspect ratio. The 21.5″ Full HD format is the dominant desktop monitor size in modern enterprise computing — and the most widely-deployed large-format touch screen size in self-service kiosk fleets globally. This combination delivers approximately 102 PPI, comfortable for at-arm's-length viewing typical of kiosk and workstation deployment, supporting:

• Modern self-service software designed for 1920×1080 baseline resolution — premium QSR ordering, banking kiosks, healthcare check-in, transit fare collection
• Enterprise productivity software designed for modern desktop displays — browser-based business apps, web-based ERP/CRM, document workflows
• Browser-based modern web HMI with multi-pane SCADA, trend graphs, alarm lists, and operator controls
• Video content playback — surveillance feeds, training videos, marketing content, advertising rotation at native Full HD
• Modern POS software designed for widescreen 1080p displays with rich product imagery and detailed transaction interfaces
• Interactive wayfinding and information displays at large-format installation positions

Intel Atom Industrial Compute Platform

The platform is built around the Intel® Atom® x6413E processor from Intel's Elkhart Lake family — a modern Quad-Core x86 SoC designed specifically for industrial IoT, edge computing, and dedicated-function commercial deployment. The Atom x6413E offers a deliberate balance of performance and power efficiency: enough compute headroom to run modern self-service software, enterprise workstation applications, web-based HMI, digital signage with Full HD content playback, and dedicated-function POS at modest power consumption (27.5W under typical load — note this is higher than smaller Atom Large Case siblings due to the larger panel backlight).

Paired with 8 GB DDR4 RAM and a 120 GB SSD (proper SSD, not eMMC), the platform handles modern commercial applications, self-service software, web frameworks, and dedicated-function enterprise software within Atom-appropriate workload boundaries. For workloads beyond this envelope, the Core i5 Large Case sibling is the appropriate choice within the same physical form factor.

Operating System Options

Debian 12 ships pre-installed as standard (note: Pyramid Computer GmbH is not affiliated with Debian; Debian is a registered trademark owned by Software in the Public Interest, Inc.). Additional OS options are available on request with an additional fee: Linux Ubuntu 22.4 LTS, Windows 10, and Windows 11. For Linux-based dedicated-function deployment, the Atom platform performs well within its workload boundaries. For Windows-heavy multi-application enterprise deployments, the Core i5 Large Case version is the better choice.

Touch System

The 10-point projected capacitive multi-touch panel is built on 1.1 mm thermally strengthened cover glass with AG anti-glare surface treatment (chemical etching), IK08 impact protection, and faytech's proprietary Clear Bond® optical bonding. The EXC81W84 touch controller communicates via USB with touch resolution of 74 RX × 42 TX. Multi-touch supports modern gesture-driven interfaces including pinch-to-zoom, two-finger scrolling, and rotation gestures — well-suited to consumer-facing self-service software designed for smartphone-equivalent interaction patterns.

Industrial Connectivity

Network: 2× 10/100/1000 Mbit Gigabit Ethernet RJ45 ports (Realtek® 8111H) supporting network segmentation between operational technology (OT) networks and information technology (IT) networks — critical for PCI-DSS scope segmentation in retail POS deployment, HIPAA-segmented networks in healthcare, and industrial cybersecurity in HMI deployment. Wi-Fi via Intel® AC 3168 module with included RP-SMA female antenna. Power over Ethernet (PoE) is available upon request — note that at 27.5W operating power, this product is slightly above standard 802.3at PoE+ budget (25.5W); PoE deployment may require 802.3bt PoE++ (60W+) infrastructure.

USB: 2× USB 3.0 + 2× USB 2.0 for peripheral integration (barcode scanners, payment terminals, RFID/smart card readers, signature pads, receipt printers, cash drawers, biometric devices, service-tool laptops).

Video Output: 1× HDMI + 1× DisplayPort for external display extension — supporting dual-display configurations (operator + customer-facing displays in retail POS, primary kiosk + secondary signage, primary workstation + reference display).

Industrial Serial: 2× RS-232 COM ports (RX/TX only, DSUB9) for legacy industrial equipment integration including PLCs, motor controllers, weigh scales, RFID readers, serial sensors, and legacy POS peripherals (cash drawers, kitchen printers, customer displays). Standard pinout: Pin 2 RXD1, Pin 3 TXD1, Pins 5/10/11 GND. Note: If your application requires RS-422/485 or industrial serial output with power-over-pin, consider the 21.5″ Patented IP65 Industrial Atom variant (FT215X6413ECAPOB) instead.

Audio: 1× Audio In/Out (3.5 mm) via Realtek® ALC897 Audio CODEC + 2× 2W integrated loudspeakers for transaction confirmations, alert tones, audio prompts, signage audio content, and accessibility audio.

Storage Expansion: 1× SD card slot for removable storage and 1× SIM card slot for cellular connectivity options.

Modular Front Kit + Large IPC Back Kit Design

This product implements faytech's modular Front Kit + Back Kit architecture with the Large IPC Back Kit (X6413E) — the same chassis design used across the entire Large Case family, configured here with the Atom processor:

• 21.5″ Rubber Frame Front Kit: Contains the 21.5″ Full HD IPS-class display panel, projected capacitive touch sensor, cover glass with Clear Bond® optical bonding, rubber frame structural assembly, and the IP65 sealing system.
• Large IPC Back Kit (X6413E): Contains the Intel Atom x6413E compute platform, all external connectivity, network hardware, storage, and the aluminum IPC back case with passive thermal management fins. Same physical chassis as the Core i5 Large Back Kit, configured with the Atom platform.

The shared physical infrastructure between the Atom and i5 Large Case families is operationally meaningful: organizations deploying mixed Atom and i5 Touch PCs can use the same mounting hardware, the same kiosk enclosures, the same cut-out templates, and the same service inventory infrastructure. The compute platform decision is independent of the physical integration decision.

Independent kit replacement during service supports:

• Compute platform refresh as Intel processor generations advance — replace only the back kit while keeping the original front kit, display, and physical integration
• Field damage replacement of cracked cover glass without retiring the working back kit and configured OS image — critical for high-traffic public-facing kiosk deployment
• OEM integration projects where custom enclosures house the back kit separately from the front kit
• Cross-compute service flexibility — organizations can upgrade from Atom to Core i5 in the same physical infrastructure if compute requirements grow

Note: Front Kit + Back Kit assembly to be done by a professional to maintain IP65 seal integrity.

Mounting Options

• VESA 100 × 100 mounting: Standard wall-mount arms, articulating mounts, monitor stands, floor stands, and industrial pole mounts.
• 6-clamp open-frame integration: Installation into custom kiosk enclosures, retail counters, healthcare workstation positions, large-format signage cabinets, or built-in workstation positions via a 508.0 × 307.0 mm cut-out, secured by 6 clamps. Maximum clamp wall thickness is 5.0 mm.

Wide Power Input & Environmental

The platform accepts 9-36V DC wide power input — supporting standard 12V industrial DC, vehicle 24V systems, 48V battery backup systems (regulated), and PoE options at 802.3bt PoE++ class.
